Where do I buy DHFS school uniform?

Blazers without a badge and other items of school uniform can be purchased from a number of retailers, however; all items of uniform with a badge and the school tie are currently available from Price & Buckland, or blazers, schools badges, and ties can be purchased from the school following payment via ParentPay.

Non-compliance of our uniform policy

All students who are not in full uniform must bring a letter from home explaining why they are not able to wear full uniform and for how long the situation will last. Letters from parents must be shown to their mentor and then presented at student services where a red 'non-compliance' slip will be issued if we feel there is a genuine reason or issue.

All unauthorised instances of incorrect uniform and appearance will lead to a one-hour after school uniform detention (Wednesday 3:30pm - 4:30pm). Three uniform detentions in an academic year will result in a Headteacher's Detention.

The possible level of sanction for not conforming to the uniform and appearance policy may include:
